Matt was at the counter, finishing up his lunch when the door opened and Penny stepped inside. His eyes widened slightly and he took a moment to swallow and reach for some water before he smiled and brought a hand up to wave. "Hello, Miss Penny! I haven't seen you in a while- what can I do for you on this fine day?"
He'd heard, of course, that she had been ill, and he was glad to see that she seemed to be feeling better. Matt slid off his stool, carefully picking up his lunch things and setting them aside before finding a stool and bringing it around for Penny to take a seat if she wished. He was on his own again today, for the shopkeeper was with his brother again- Matt wondered if they'd ever find a cure for his brother, and to be honest, he wasn't really sure. "There you go, Miss," he said as he set the stool down and moved back to find his own seat. "How are you doing?"
